As the latest flagship of the Gruvmaster Gruv-X Series, the AG-8Z Automatic Roll Grooving Machine is engineered for demanding steel pipe fabrication and on-site installation.
Combining robust power, intelligent automation, and durable structure, it represents Gruvmaster’s pursuit of efficiency, precision, and reliability in modern pipe grooving.
Engineered for Strength and Stability
The AG-8Z features a reinforced steel frame, a 1500 W high-torque motor, and a heavy-duty gearbox designed for long-term, continuous operation under challenging job-site conditions.
Despite its power, the AG-8Z maintains a compact form, making transport and setup easier even in confined spaces. It grooves pipes up to 12″ in diameter (optional 14″) — perfectly balancing strength and practicality.
Smart Automation, Professional Results
With its push-button control panel, operators can perform accurate grooving with simple, intuitive commands.
The automatic depth-limiting device resets after reaching the preset groove depth, guaranteeing uniform results every time.
Gruvmaster’s signature interlocking roller system ensures precise groove geometry and sealing length, while the optional auto-guide wheel supports automatic forward and reverse movement — ideal for batch production.

At Gruvmaster, automation means simpler operation, higher accuracy, and better performance.
